Updating stakeholders, SBTech has informed that it will provide SB&G’s full operational provisions for its Sky Bet Deutschland brand. Agreed platform provisions will include trading and risk management systems, bonusing tools, CRM functions and payment provisions.

A pleased Richard Carter CEO of SBTech commented on securing Sky Bet Deutschland as a platform client: “The deal with Sky Bet consolidates our position as the market-leading provider of sportsbook and platform solutions for premium operators worldwide. I’m particularly looking forward to overseeing close collaboration between our teams. Innovation is at the core of both of our organisations, and together we can push the boundaries of the sports betting industry, providing new products to customers in a wide range of territories.”

In 2016, SB&G governance announced that the company would expand its international reach by entering the German betting market. Last September, the operator appointed Jochen Weiner as Managing Director of Sky Bet Deutschland.

SB&G has high ambitions for the market, detailing that it wants to deliver a premium localised product for the German betting consumer, offering new functionalities such as cash-out, enhanced accumulators, price boosts combined with best-in-class payment provisions

Completing its deal with SBTech, Jochen Weiner, Managing Director of Sky Bet Deutschland, said: “Our growth strategy is focused on agility and technological innovation and as such, SBTech was a natural choice as our sportsbook and platform provider.”
